Week 13-Sky Sports

by

Another week of NFL, but this is where it starts to get funky.
The Thanksgiving games are always kind of like a blur of happy…like that time between Christmas and New Years, when you can do anything!
Day drink, afternoon drink, lay in your jammies all day.

Unfortunately for us in the UK, we don’t get to celebrate that fattening up event that is Thanksgiving, while our partners are glued to their phones finding Black Friday deals.
We have some NFL hat and jersey deals btw with Fanatics if you’e looking for gifts for your sweetie for the holidays.

Anywho, Sky Sports has released their schedule for this week, which also includes the Thanksgiving games.
Join us Thursday at Belushi’s Camden, where we will be showing all of the NFL games until 1am.

As you might know, if you live in the UK and DON’T have Sky Sports, it can be pretty tricky to watch those games as they will be blocked out. But of course there are ways to get around that.
Redzone is great for 9pm, when there are only 2 games on-as Scott Hanson furiously dives between the two. The blackout doesn’t even matter.

A recent study said that over 60% of NFL fans in the UK get their NFL feed from either Reddit; Facebook, or IPTV. That doesn’t bode well for the the contract is up.

The big game for Sunday is going to be the Ravens vs 49ers. The top D vs the top O.
The Ravens have humbled all but 2 opponents this year, but are now ON FIRE, as they head into the playoff stretch. This is deffo going to be an enjoyable game.

The Raiders vs Chiefs is a great divisional match-up on Sunday evening, with the Raiders starting to build momentum, with the Chiefs struggling to stay afloat.
This should be a high flying affair as well.

Where are you watching the games this Sunday? Join us at the Princess Alexandra in Crouch End.

Also make sure to join our DraftKings free contests this week, so you can win big.

Oh Myles!

by

Myles Garrett is an idiot. Of course, you all know this by know after seeing that wild TNF game on Thursday Night Football.
He has been suspended for the rest of the season, and it’s considered ‘indefinite’, which could mean forever.
Luckily, no criminal charges were filed, as he could easily have faced a prison sentence for his reckless behaviour.

The Game

TNF on Nov 14th, 2019 was not a very important game with two teams barely able to muster a playoff run this season, but it was an emotional one.
It’s no secret that these two teams HATE each other.
Whether it’s the divisional rivalry, a lingering resentment amongst blue collar cities, or the fact that every time that they play each other-they get amped up.
This was a down and out dirty game.
With JuJu taking a blatant helmet to helmet hit, and after the play trash-talking increasing, it was evident that something was going to happen.
Violence was on the menu.

The Refs

What did the refs do?
In a season where refs have been on everyone like glue, you would have thought that they might have anticipated that this was going in a bad direction.
After the hit on JuJu’s head, did they take a moment to address the players and coaches and say ‘he guys, it’s time to tone this down.’
They didn’t.
This could have been avoided, and the refs should heed some of the blame in allowing this to go this far.

The Result

Myles Garrett apologised profusely after the incident, but as we know-that is just not enough.
When you watch the replay and see the intensity in his eyes, there was only one colour.
Red.
A red eyed intensity to bash the crap out of Mason Rudolph and everyone who got in his way.
No matter what he says after the incident, he was the one who pushed harder and harder throughout the game.
Did Rudolph kick him in the balls and try to rip off his helmet?
Hard to tell.
But he’s the QB. He is afforded a degree of protection, and if the refs did see something, then they should have nipped that in the bud asap.
Myles is going to need to disappear this season.
Just shut up, don’t be like Burfect, and accept your punishment.
If they decide you should NEVER play in the NFL again.
Accept that too.
Time to grow up son.

NFL Fights

by

Fight! Fight! Fight!
The refs are tough in the NFL, but that doesn’t mean they can stop all of the testosterone flooding onto the field every Sunday.
Fighting has continued in the NFL, and there ain’t nothing wrong with that!

Not sure if this video will get us flagged, but we thought we would share a nice little compilation of NFL fights that have happened up until week 10 in the NFL.

Again-these rights belong to the NFL-so this could get taken down-but what a shit show!

What would happen if we allowed some fighting in the NFL like the NHL?
If the NFL allowed 2 dudes to helmet off and batter each other for a few minutes until one capitulates?
Bring it on.

Who do you think the toughest guys in the NFL are?
Aaron Donald is a beast, Kahlil Mack could mess you up, and JJ Watt could crush you with a smile.
Not the same in the ring though.

Greg Hardy made the transition to MMA, so it only seems a matter of time before other players start doing it as well.

 

 

Popeye’s Chicken Sandwich

by

Popeye’s Chicken Sandwich is one of the hottest things in America right now.
Some might say that it’s hotter than Tom Brady.
Might say that, not for sure.

It was only a few weeks ago that Day Prescott was in the huddle, extolling the virtues of Wendy’s spicy chicken nuggets, so we know that NFL players are chicken obsessed.

So people will do ANYTHING to get their hands on these greasy, bird burgers.
How far does anything go?

Well take a look at this video and watch as this lady totals the side of her Mercedes trying to sneak into the drive thru.
Karma is certainly a bitch, and it looks like this lady might be as well.
What the heck was she thinking?
You can see her trying to angle her car in front of another car that was RIGHTFULLY in the drive-thru line.
She then proceeds to scrape her car against the metal bollard as she tries in vain once again to get to the line to get a chicken sandwich.

The best is the girl casually eating her sandwich while watching in silence as this moron destroys her car.
I wonder what she says to her partner when she gets home?
‘I was side-swiped, and they drove away!’
Uh huh.
Until he goes on YouTube.
